(music & lyrics Cйcile Corbel)

Once there as an honest man
Fallen in love with a bonnie maid
He spread gold and flowers in her hair
A painted veil, she's a painted veil

He walks in her steps
Spies on her dreams
Builds a gilded cage
He's crazy in love with a stranger
This is a fancy in a mirror

He adores her
She's a bird in a cage
And years have gone in despair
His love is vain
Because he's a blind man
He don't know her name
Falling in love with a shadow, a painted veil

Once there was a nobleman
Fallen in love with a wealthy maid
He stole gold and diamonds from her hands
A painted veil, it's a painted veil

And he locks her in silence and shade
Builds a gilded cage
He's crazy in love with a stranger
This is a fancy in a mirror

Once there was a pretty maid
She saw her face on the bright water
She spent days and years staring herself
A painted veil, it's a painted veil

She's lost her soul
She's lost her dreams
Building a gilded cage
She's crazy in love with a stranger
This is a fancy in a mirror

I adore her
She's a bird in a cage
And years have gone in despair
My love is vain
Because she's a blind lady
She don't know my name
Falling in love with a shadow, a painted veil
